Receiving Payments

You may choose to receive payments from Prudential via various means


There are many ways you can choose to receive a payment from Prudential. Cashless payment is a safe and convenient way to receive payment, and we have many options for you, such as PayNow, Direct Credit and Cheque.

Payments can only be made to policyholders, trustee(s) or assignees of a policy.

All payments will be credited to you via transfer to your PayNow NRIC/FIN ID if you do not have an existing recurring direct credit or other payment arrangements. Terms and Conditions apply.



PayNow

PayNow - Our Default Payment Mode to You

Receive your policy payouts and proceeds, including refunds, claims and withdrawals, quickly and conveniently with PayNow.

All payments will be credited to you via transfer to a bank account that is linked to your PayNow NRIC/FIN ID. This is unless you have an existing recurring direct credit or other payment arrangement in place.

To successfully receive payment, you will need to register for PayNow with your bank and link it to your NRIC or FIN. Here’s how:

  • Log in to your bank’s internet or mobile banking account
  • Sign up for PayNow,
  • Link your PayNow to your NRIC/FIN.

As our payments can only be made to policy owners, we are not able to make a transfer to you if you only linked PayNow to your mobile phone. Do ensure that you have linked your PayNow to your NRIC/FIN to avoid delays in receiving your payouts.

What If I don't have PayNow?

If you do not currently have an internet banking account with your bank or have not signed up for PayNow, we encourage you to sign up for this service. With PayNow, you can receive faster and more reliable payments and avoid missing cheques or waiting for cheques to be mailed and cleared.

You can also choose to sign up for Direct Credit, so payouts are credited directly into your bank account.

In the event we are unable to pay you via PayNow or Direct Credit, we will arrange for a cheque to be mailed to you. Be sure to keep us updated on your latest address. To check your latest records with us, you can log in to PRUaccess to view your personal details.

Receiving payouts to me via PayNow NRIC/ FIN.

We have integrated PayNow to provide you with a fast and convenient way to receive your policy proceeds. With this service, you can receive future payouts from your policies, such as refunds, claims and withdrawals via PayNow.

All you need to do is to ensure you have already signed up for the PayNow service with your bank using your NRIC or FIN. Instead of waiting for cheques to be mailed to you, PayNow lets you receive faster payouts direct to your account.
